J^e it enacted by the /Senate and House of Kepresentatives of the
ZTnited States of America in C ongress assembled^ That section fifty-
three hundred and fifty-two of the Revised Statutes of the United
States be, and the same is' hereby, amended so as to read as follows,
namely:

ritory or other place over which the United States have exclusive
jurisdiction, hereafter marries another, whether married or single,
and any man who hereafter simultaneously, or on the same day, mar-
ries more than one woman, in a Territory or other place over which
the Uniteei States have exclusive jurisdiction, is guilty of polygamy,
and shall be punished by a fine of not more than five hundred dol-
lars and by imprisonment for a term of not more than five years;
but this section shall not extend to any person by reason of any
former marriage whose husband or wife by such marriage shall have
been absent for five successive years, and is not known to sucli
person to be living, and is believed by such person to be dead, nor
to any person by reason of any former marriage which, shall have
been dissolved by a valid decree of a competent court, nor to any
person by reason of any former marriage which shall have been pro-
nounced void by a valid decree of a competent court, on the ground
of nullity of the marriage contract."
Sec. 2. That the foregoing provisions shall not aifect the prosc-
eution or punishment of any offense already committed against tlu-
section amended by the first section of this act.
Sec. 3. That if any male person, in a Territor}' or other place
over wlrich the United States have exclusive jurisdiction, hei-eafter
coha-bits with more than one woman, he shall be deemed guilty of a
misdemeanor, and on conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine
of not more than three hundred dollars, or by imprisonment for not
more than six months, or by both said punishments, in the disr ra-
tion of the court.
Sec. 4. That counts for any or all of the offenses named in sec-
tions one and three of this act may be joined in the same infonnu-
tion or indictment.
Sec. 5. That in any prosecution for bigamy, polygamy, or un-
lawful cohabitation, under any statute of the United States, it shall
be sufficient cause of challenge to any person drawn or summoned as
a juryman or talesman, first, that he is or has been living in the prac-
tice of bigamy, polygamy, or unlawful cohabitation with more than
one woman, or that he is or has been guilty of an offense purwshable
• by either of the foregoing sections, or by section fiftv-three hundred
and fifty-two of the Revised statutes of the United States, or the
act of July tirst, eighteen hundred and sixty-two, entitled "An act
to punish and prevent the practice of polygamy in the Territories of
the United States and other places, and disapproving and annulling
certain acts of the legislative assembly of the Territory of Utah,"
or, second, that he believes it right for a man to have more than one
living and undivorced wife at the same time, or to live in the prac-
tice of cohabiting with more than one woman; and any person ap-
pearing or offered as a juror or talesman, and challenged on either
of the fores^oing grounds, may be questioned on his oath as to the
existence of any such cause of challenge, and other evidence may
be introduced bearing upon the question raised by such challenge;
and this question shall be t/ied by the court But as to the first
ground of challenge before mentioned, the person challenged shall
not be bound to answer if he shall say upon his oath that he declines
on the ground that his answer may tend to criminate himself; and if
he shall answer as to said first ground, his answer shall not be given
in evidence in any criminal prosecution against him for any offense
named in sections one or three of this act; but if he declines to an-
swer on any ground, he shall be rejected as incompetent.
Sec. 6. That the F^resident is hereby authorized to grant am-
nesty to such classes of offenders guilty of bigamy, polygamy, or un-
lawful cohabitation, before the passage of this act, on such condi-
tions and under such limitations as he shall think proper; but no
such amnesty shall have effect unless the conditions thereof shall be
complied with.
Sec. 7. That the issue of bigamous or polygamous marriages,
known as Mormon marriages, in cases in which such marriages have
been solemnized according to the ceremonies of the Mormon sect,
in any Territory of the United States, and such issue shall have
been born before the first day of January, anno Domini eighteen
hundred and eighty- three, are hereby legitimated.
Sec 8. That no polygamist, bigamist, or any person cohabiting
with more than one woman, and no woman cohabiting with any of the
persons described as aforesaid in this section, in any Territory or
other place over wlych the United States have exclusive jurisdic-
tion, shall be entitled to vote at any election held in any such Ter-
ritorv or othar place, or be eligible for election or appointment to
or be entitled to hold any office or place of public trust, honor, or
emolument in, under, or for any such Territory or place, or under
the United States.
Sec. 9. That all the registration and election offices of every de
scription in the Territory of Utah are hereby declared vacant, and
each and every duty relatino- to the registration of voters, the con-
duct (jf elections, the receiving or rejection of votes, and the can-
vassing and returning of the same, and the issuing of certificates or
other evidenc^of election in said Territory, shall, until other provi-

sions be made by the legislative assembly of said Territory as is
hereinafter by this section provided, be performed under the exist-
ing laws of the United States and said Territory by proper persons,
who shall be appointed to execute such offices and perform such du-
ties by a board of live persons, to be appointed by the President, by
and with the advice and consent of the Senate, not more than three
of whom shall be memliers of one political party; and a majority of
whom shall be a quorum. The members of said board so appointed

said offices as herein authorized. The secretary of the Territory
shall be the secretary of said board, and keep a journal of its pro-
ceedings, and attest the action of said board under this section.
The canvass and return of all the votes at elections in said Territo-
ry for members of the legislative assembly thereof shall also be re-
turned to said board, which shall canvass all such returns and issue
certificates of election for those persons who, being eligible for such
election, shall apDcar to have been lawfully elected, which certifi-
cates shall be the only evidence of the right of such p^sons to sit
in such assembly; Provided^ That said board of five persons shall
not exclude any person otherwise eligible to vote from the polls on
account of any opinion such person may entertain on the subject of
bigamy or polygamy, nor shall they refuse to count any such vote
on account of the opinion of the person casting it on the subject of
bigamy or polygamy; but each house of such assembly, after its or-
ganization, shall have power to decide upon the elections and quali-
fications of its members. And at, or after the first meeting of said
legislative assembly whose members shall have }:)een elected and re-
turned according to the provisions of this act, said legislative as-
sembly may make such laws, conformable to the organic act of said
Territory and not inconsistent with other laws of the United States,
as it shall deem proper concerning the filling of the offices in said
Territory declared vacant by this a'ct.
Approved, March 22, 1882.
REPORT
OF
THE UTAH COMMISSION.
OffK E OF THE UtAH CoMMISSIOX,
Salt Luke City, l(tah, August 31, 1882.
Dear Sir : The Coniniissioii appointed by the President, under
Ihe ninth section of "An act to amend section 5352 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States, in reference to higaniy, and for other
purposes,*" approved March 22, 1882, respectfully report : That all
the members of the Commission met, by request of the chairman, at
the city of Chicag-o, on the iTth of July, 1882, and remained in session
several days, James R. Pettigrew, of Arkansas, a member of the
Connoiss^on, was .appointed temporary Secretaiy-. After consultation
and an extmination and consideration of the laws of the United
States and of the Territory of Utah pertaining to our duties, it was
determined that nothing could be done in regard to the registration
of voters and the conduct of any election in Utah until the necessary
appropriation bills then pending in Congress should ])e passed. Ac-
coi-dingly, the Commission adjourned to meet at Omaha, Neb., on the
15th day of August, where the Commissioners met, and on the follow-
ing day connnenced their journey to this city, arriving liere on the
evening of the 1 8th instant.
On the day following a session was liehl for the transaction of
business, Arthur T^. Thomas, Secretary of the Territory, and ex-otfici(j
Secretary of the Commission, l)eing present, and (me or more sessions
have been held each day since. A strong disposition with some of
the non-Mormon citizens against preparing for the election of a Dele-
gate in C'ongress manifested itself before the 'work of preparation
therefor was commenced. But upon investigation as to the condition
of aifairs, and an examination as to the state of the law and the duty
of the Connnission thereunder, the following preamble and resolution
was adopted :
AYi^p'"pas it is i)rovided })y the Revised Statiites of the United
States (section 1802) that every Territory shall have the right to send
a Delegate to the House of Representatives of the United States, and
as it is further provided '(section 25) that such election shall be held
in all the Territories of the United States on the Tuesday after the
first Monday in November, 1882 : Therefore,
Jiesolved, That in order to prepare for such election in the Ter-
ritory of Utah on the day so established the Connnission will proceed
forthwith to a])point registration officers to revise the registration
REl'OJM' OK UTAH ( ( ).M M ISSiOX. 7
lists, now on tile in the otlice of the clerks of e-dyh of the .several coun-
ties, in the mainier required by-law.
In pursuance of this resolution the Commission proceeded with
g-reat care and deliberation to prepare "-rules and regulations'" for the
guidance of the registration and electic^n officers to be appointed.
This was a difficult and delicate task, because of the necessity of
traming the rules aiul regulations governing the registration of voters
and the conduct of the election to conform to the principles and re-
( jidrenients of the act of Congress as well as the laws of the Territory.
We inclose a printed co})y of the same, together witli the forms of
affidavits, etc., provided ]:)y the Commission.
The matter of the appointment of registrati(^n officers for the
several counties in the Territories was then taken up, and one for
each county has been duly appointed and c;om missioned. In addi-
tion to these a deputy or assistant in each voting precinct in the Ter-
ritory will be immediately apj)ointed. Our selections have and must
necessarily be influenced in a considei'able degree by suggestions and
reconnneiidations of leading citi/ens here The emlDarrassments in
this direction have been great, but the Connnission have endeavored
to secure the very best available men, rejecting, of course, all persons
who are ineligible under the law.
From present indications it appeal's that that class of persons
who are deprived of the right of sufi[i-age by the act of Congress will
not attempt to register or vote. These will number, male and female,
})robably 10,000 voters. Man^r of the non-Mormons have hitherto re-
frained from voting, l)ut it is believed that at the November electic^n
they will cast a much larger vote than at any time heretofore. How-
ever, the business of the Cominission, as understood by the members
thereof, relates not to the rjuestions of parties nor cajididates, but to
securing so far as possible a fair registration and ^,\^^ im])artially con-
ducted election under the law.
As before suggested, the Commission have encountered many
embarrassments and complications. The o])])osition made at the out-
set by some non-Mormons of respectability and influence against
holding the regular election for Delegate in Congress, as required by
law, in November next, was an unpleasant feature of, the situation.
But th^re does not appear to l)e under the law any discretion what-
ever for the Commission. The law demanded an election. The people
of the Territory were clearly entitled to representation in Congress,
if the same could be secured thrcmgh a due observance of the restric-
tions imposed in relation to bigamy and polygamy. We did not see
how we could exc-use the omission, if being present and prejiared to
proceed with the work assigned us we shtmld not even attempt to
perform this manifest duty, and so it was decided to proceed. It was
not deemed advisable, even if the ])ower was in the Commission, con-
cerning which there is some doubt, to commence de novo a registra-
tion of the voters of the Territory ; but after very careful considera-
lion it was decided to order a revision of the existing registration
lists in September, as re^iiiii'ed by tlie Territorial law, a])plying to the
same the governing jjrinciples of the Edmunds act.
We think the reguhirity of this proceedijig cainiot be questioned.
Its effectiveness will be equal to an entirely new registration, and we
believe the results c>f the election Avill so demonstrate. In the prepa-
ration of the rules and I'egulations to govern the registration and the
conduct of the election, as before stated, the labor of assimilating the
acts of Congress and the local election law, was tedious and perplex-
ing, involving much greater responsibility than was agreeable to the
Commission to assume; but to accomplish the results lequired by the
provisions of section 8 of the Edmunds act it became necessary to
use all the powers conferred.
A later embarrassment came in the forjn of a demand on the
part of certain non-Mormon citizens of high character that the Com-
mission shoCild assume jurisdiction and decide the local statute
authorizing women to vote to be illegal and void. We concluded
that it was not competent for the Commission to repeal or modify that
statute in the manner suggested; that the principle of female suffrage
is, in no respect, in (M)nllict with the ]>ur]ioses of the Edmunds law,
and, therefore, that the Commission had nothing whatever to do with
the subject; moreover, we found on investigation that this statute had
been in force for twelve years without being adjudicated in the
Courts of the .Territory or disturbed by Congress. In conclusion,
])ermit us to say that we believe the results to be reached through
the careful registration ali-eady insured, and the impai-tial election
which can hardly fail to ft)llow, will l)e satisfactory to the government
and the country.
In closing this report, it is due to the Territorial Secretary, who
is ex-officio Secretary of the Commissi(Mi, Mr. Arthur L. Thomas, to
say that the Commission has received from him valuable assistance
in its work, particularly in the matter of the selection of registration
and other officers.
Very respectfully, your obedient servants,

report of utah commission. 9
Office of thp: Utah Co:mmissiox,
Suit Lake City, Utah, November 17, 1882.
Sir : The election for Delegate to Congress having been held
in Utah Territory on the 7th inst., under the sujiervision of this Com-
mission, we deem it proper to I'eport to your department the progress
made up to this time in the discharge of our trust.
Since our last report, dated August 31, we appointed a registra-
tion officer for each voting precinct of the several counties, and estab-
lished some additional polling places, with a view of affording proper
facilities for all the legal voters. In order to conform the local law,
so far as practicable, to the requirements of the act of Congress, we
\Aere obliged to pi-onudgate rules and regulations for the judges of
election.
We next appointed jiulges of election, three'for each polling
place, about seven hundred and fifty in number. The local law^ re-
quires that the judges shall be selected from both politii.'al parties, if
})racticable. Accorditigly w^e selected them, in general, from ]>oth
j)arties; but in some instances we were obliged to appoint all of th^m
from the "Liberal party" or from the "People's party," because there
were no eligible and qualified persons, so far as we were informed, in
such precincts belonging to the other party. Commissions were sent
to each of the judges (copies of which, together with tlie rides tJnd
regulations, are herewith inclosed).
In order to procure such information as we deemed useful to the
government, we addressed circulars to the registrars, and from their
responses we learn that the total number of registered voters is
33,266, of whom 18,772 are males, and 14,494 are females. From
their reports it appears that about 12,000 men and womtMi ;ue ex-
cluded from registration by reason of polygamy.
Several of the counties of this Territory are quite large in area,
some of them over a hundred miles long, sparsely inhabited, and diffi-
cult of access by mail or otherwise. This has occasioned considerable
delay and extra exertion in preparing for tlie election and receiving
the returns.
The anomalous condition of this country and its people, together
with the inherent difficulty of adjusting the local laws to the act of
Congress, are such that they imposed on us great care and delibera-
tion, lest, on the one hand, we should go beyond the limits of the
law, or, on the other hand, fall short of a vigcvror.s ;iiid efFective dis-
charge of our duties.
In the absence of instructions or judicial decisions to aid us in
the interpretation of the law prescribing our duties, we were obliged
to construe it for ourselves, and in doing so we endeavored to con-
form, to the well-known canons for the construction of statutes, having
a due regard for the evident intention of Congreiss in this act, con-
strued with other acts of Congress, in pari materia.
2
10 REPORT OF UTAH COMMTSSIOX.
"•Polygamists and bigamists," and persons "cohabiting with more
than one woman,"" are, by section 8, to be excluded from voting and"
holding office.
Immediately upon addressing ourselves to the discharge of our
duties, we were obliged to consider the scope and extent of this ex-
clusion.
l^id Congress intend that those only should be excluded, who,
at the very time of the registration or election, were then living in
polygamy, or in '"unlawful cohabitation with more than one woman?"
If so, such a construction would render this section a perfect nullity
The means of evasion are patent to the dullest comprehension. We
therefore concluded that neither the letter nor spirit of the statute re-
quired such a narrow construction, and, in our published "Rules and
Regulations," we gave the exclusion a wdder scope and application.
We found that the local law^ prescribed a certain form of oath to
be taken by persons appljnng to be registered as voters. We adopt-
ed this oath verbatim^ adding a clause in regard to "polygamy and
bigamy," and "unlawful cohabitation," which we considered it proper
to do, in order to make the local law conform, so far as practicable,
to the principles and requirements of the act of Congress.
In short, we were charged by the act of Congress with the duty
of excluding from the polls and from eligibility to office, a certain
class of persons. How this was to be done was not defined by the
act.
Were we to exclude only those who had been convicted of the
crime of polygamy in the Courts? This construction would have been
derided by everybody in this Territory.
We concluded that it was the intention of Congress to leave it
largely to the discretion of the Commission, to determine the means
of discriminating between the legal and illegal voters. This we en-
deavored to do in part by the prescribed oath, which sets forth the
various qualifications of a legal voter, e. //., those in regard to age,
residence, citizenship or naturalization, and freedom from the dis-
qualifications imposed by act of Congress.
During the week before the November election the Commission
made an ordei- appointing five gentlemen of character and standing
as a ]3oard of Canvassers of the returns of the election for a Delegate
to the Forty-eighth Congress (a copy of which order is enclosed
herein). On the 16th day of November, 1882, the said Board of
Canvassers met at the rooms of the Commission and canvassed the
election returns, from Avhich it appeared that John T. Caine had re-
ceived 23,039 votes, and Philip T. Van Zile had received 4,88-i
votes. John T. Caine having received a majority of all the legal
votes, he was declared duly elected, and a certificate given accord-
ingly.
Having reason to believe that it is expected by the Executive
that this Commission will make suggestions as to any additional le-
REPORT OF UTAH COMMISSION. 11
oislation that may be needed to carry out^the principles of the law
under which the Commission was organized, we would state that,
in our judgment, a marriage law enacted by Congress would be an
efficient auxiliary in the suppression of polygamy. It is asserted,
and generally believed by non-Mormons in this T( rritory, that plu-
ral marriage is still practiced here in secret. We would recommend
that Congress enact a law declaring all ■ future marriages iii this
Territory null and void, unless they are contracted and evidenced
in the manner provided by the act. For example: That all mar-
riages shall be solemnized in certain designated public places; and
witnessed by such persons, and registered in such public offices, as
to make the proof of marriage morally certain ; providing also, that
the person officiating in the marriage ceremony, together with the
parties and witnesses, shall make their affidavits against polygamy,
and set forth the time and place and other particulars relating to
the marriage. Or, allow marriages to be solemnized in private; but
with the like guarantees of registration, affidavits," witnesses, etc.,
and in either case providing penalties for violation of the act by any
of the persons concerned therein. In making this suggestion, we
omit the details, which can readily be supplied by reference to the
marriage acts of most of the States.
In our former report we adverted to the law of this Territory
conferring on women the right of suffrage. This law was enacted
by the Territorial Legislature some twelve years ago. Of course it
is competent for Congress to repeal or annul this law. Without ex-
pressing any opinion on the question of women suffrage in general,
we are satisfied that, owing to the peculiar state of affairs in Utah,
this law is an obstruction to the speedy solution of the "vexed ques-
tion."
In the prosecution of polygamy cases here it is difficult to
prove the first or legal marriage. We would suggest, as a remedy,
that the first or legal wnfe be declared by act of Congress a compe-
tent witness in such prosecutions.
Under the act of Congress, by virtue of whose provisions this
Commission was appointed, the people of Utah appear to be put
upon probation until a legislative assembly, elected under the pro-
visions of the act, shall meet and pass the requisite laws concerning
registration and eleciion.
The election for members of the legislative assembly will be
held next August, and that body will hold its next session in Janu-
ary, 1884. It is to be hoped that it will comprise a sufficient num-
ber of members who will be disposed to bring this Territory into
harmony with the sentiments of the people of other parts -of the
country.
We have been engaged in the discharge of our trust, only a few
months, not long enough to fully test the operation of the law as to
its ultimate results. But, so far, it has been a decided success in ex'

eluding polygamists from the exercise of suffrage; and we are of
the opinion that the steady and continued enforcement of the law
will place polygamy in a condition of gradual extinction, and that
the domination that is complained of by non-Mormons in Utah and
elsewhere, will, at no distant day, be much ameliorated.
In accepting the trust committed to us, it was not expected by
the Commission, and, we suppose, not anticipated by Congress nor
the Executive Department of the Government, that the desired re-
sults would be accomplished at once nor in the brief space of a few
months; but there is reason to believe that the operation of this law
and other influences are setting strongly in the direction of reform,
and that the hitherto dominant faction will be supplanted by "Young
Utah" in the conduct of public affairs.
There is no doubt that the enactment of the law of Congress
under which this Commission was appointed has agitated the public
mind in this Territory to a remarkable degree. Hitherto there has
been very little public discussion of political questions, and in gen-
eral the people have not attended political meetings in large num-
bers. But we are gratified to find that in the "campaign" preced-
ing the November election for Delegate to Congress, the people of
all classes have manifested a lively interest in public affairs, and
have attended the political meetings in large numbers. Many of
these meetings have been held by both parties in various parts of
the Territory, and able addresses have been delivered by speakers
on both sides. It is an encouraging sign that many of the "Liberal"
meetings have been largely attended by Mormons, and in many in-
stances they have composed the chief part of the audiences. It is
proper to add that so far as we have learned these meetings have
been characterized by exceptional good order, good humor, and de-
corum. On Saturday night before the election both parties held
large mass meetings in Salt Lake City, and vied with each other in
the display of national flags and patriotic music.
Our attention has been called to the propriety of our recom-
mending Congressional legislation of a radical character. But we
are not inclined to advise such measures, unless upon further ob-
servation and experience the wisdom and necessity of such legisla-
tion shall be demonstrated.
The area of the Territory is 84,000 square miles. The popula-
tion is about 150,000, about 40,<i00 being non-Mormons, many of
whom are socalled apostates from the Mormon church.
The ])eople are generally engaged in agricultural pursuits.
Prior to the completion of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific
railroads there were very few non-Mormon residents in the Terri-
tory. Since 1869 the business of mining has become an important
interest, and from that time the total output is over $60,000,000 in
silver, lead, and gold.
There are also valuable deposits of coal, iron, copper, and other
REPORT OF UTAH COMMISSION. 13
minerals. The mines give employment to a great many persons,
and hive been the means of attracting a large non- Mormon popula-
tion to the Territory. Many of the non-Mormons (or "Gentiles) are
doing a prosperous business in banking, mining and mercantile
pursuits.
The legislation of Congress, as we understand it, is not enacted
against the religion of any portion of the people of this Territory.
The law under which we are acting is directed against the crime of
polygamy, for the extirpation of which this Commission will freely
use all the powers delegated to us, and will from time to time sug-
gest to the Government such supplemental legislation as may aid
in suppressing this reproach to the civilization of this age and
country.
We trust that this object will be accomplished without resort-
ing to measures destructive to local self government, punishing the
whole people, the innocent as well as the guilty, with political os-
tracism. At all events we are unwilling to advise such a course
until the act of (yongress under which we are acting shall be more
fully tested. Besides, a proper respect for the legislative branch
of the government would restrain us from impeaching the wisdom
of their enactment at the very threshold of the work committed to
us, and long before the time expressed in the act of Congress.
If, however, the next session ot the legislative assembly, elect-
ed under the act of Congress, shall fail to respond to the will of the
nation. Congress should have no hesitation in using extraordinary
measures to comple the people of this Territory to obey the laws of
the land.
For the Commission :
Very respectfully,
'aLEX. RAMSEY,

OKDER
OF THE UTAH COMMISSION ADOPTED TUNE 13, 1883.
William Jennings having appeared before the Commission on
Monday, June 11th, 1883, and made the following statement :
"I decided not to register last year, but appeared before the
Deputy Registrar of the Third Salt Lake City Precinct, on Satur-
day, June 9th, 1883, and took the oath prescribed by Rule 2 of the
rules defining the duties of the Registration Officers, and was duly
re2:istered. Subsequently I received notice from the Deputy Re-
gistrar that my name had been stricken from the list of voters of
said precinct by the direction of Thomas C. Bailey, Registration
Officer of Salt Lake County. I entered into a polygamous relation
prior to July .1st, 1862, and continued in that relation until about
the year 1871, at which date my first wife died, and I have since
lived and cohabited with but one wife. I, therefore, claim that I
have not entered into any marriage relation in violation of law, and
that I am entitled to have my name appear on the list of registered
voters of said precinct, and ask that the action of the Registration
Officer for said county be reversed, and my name restored to the
list of voters of said precinct."
After due consideration by the Commission it is ordered "that
said William Jennings is within the meaning of Section 8 of the
Act of Congress of March 22d, 1882, disqualified as a voter, and is
therefore not entitled to register or vote."
.THE AUGUST ELECTION, 1883.
ORDER OF THE COMMISSION.
Report of the Special Committee, and the order of the Com-
mission, adopted June 13, 1883.
Salt Lake City, June J3, 1883.
Alex. Mamsey^ Chairman of the Commission:
Sir: — Your ( committee appoinied on May 7th to examine and
report in relation to the offices to be filled at the August election
1883, respectfully report : That there are to be elected members
of the Legislative Assembly in all the Legislative Districts of the
Territory; and also certain county and precinct officers.
As to those officers who should have been elected at the August
election in 1882, we find, that by law, some of them are to be elect-
ed for a certain number of years; some for a given term "and until
their successors are qiialifiecV^' and some for a given term and
"until their successors are elected and qualified^
In regard to vacancies, and the time and manner of filing them,
the local laws are difficult of construction in view of subsequent
Congressional legislation. But in deference to the decision of the
Supreme Court of Utah, as to vacancies, in the case of Kimball vs.
Richards in 1882, sustaining the appointment of the Governor of
Utah, we are of the opinion that all offices which should have been
filled at the general election in 1882, are to be filled at the next
general election in August, 1883, for the unexpired term.
We are further of the opinion that the offices of Territorial
Superintendent of District Schools, Territorial Auditor of Public
Accounts, Territorial Treasurer, and Commissioners to locate uni-
versity lands, are under the Organic Act of the Territory of Utah,
to be appointed by the Governor with the assent of the Legislative
Council, and that the acts of the Legislative Assembly providing
for filling those offices by an election of the people, are in conflict
with said Organic Act, and are therefor invalid.
Respectfully,
A. B. CARLTON,
G. L. GODFREY,
• ConiTnittee.
The report was adopted, and the following order made :
"That at the general election to be held on Monday, August 6.
1883, there are to be elected members of the Legislative Assembly
RULES. 37
in the several Legislative Districts of the Territory, and also certain
county and precinct officers. And that all county and precinct
offices which should have been filled at the August election, 1883,
are to be filled at the August election, 1883, for the unexpired
term."
ORDER
OF THE COMMISSION, ADOPTED JUNE
Ordered, That there shall be appointed three Judges of Elec-
tion for each municipal corjDoration of the Territory of Utah, in
which municipal elections are to be held, one of whom shall be de-
signated presiding Judge; provided, that in m^unicipal corporations
in which there are more than one election precinct, there shall be
appointed three additional Judges for each of said precincts. The
presiding Judge of each municipal election shall procure from the
office of the Clerk of the County Com-t, at the expense of the city, a
certified copy of the last preceding Registration List of the precinct
or precincts in which said municipality is located, and if said lists
have not been filed with the County Clerk he shall procure a certi-
fied copy from the Registration Officer of the county, and on the day
designated by the City Charter he shall proceed to revise said list
by erasing therefrom the names of all persons who have died, or re-
moved from the precinct, or who are disqualified under the provi-
sions of the Act of Congress approved March 22, 1882, entitled "x\n
Act to amend Section 5352 of the Revised Statutes of the United
States, in reference tofbigamy, and for other purposes," and adding
thereto the names of persons who are entitled to be registered and
to vote; provided, that in said revision a new affidavit will not be
required of those already registered, except where there is good
reason to believe that the voter has gone into polygamy since the
last registration. Said Judges are hereby constituted a Board of
Canvassers for said election in their respective municipalities, and
shall make returns thereof to the Secretary of the Territory, who is
hereby authorized and directed to issue certificates of election to
the persons who, being eligible, appear by said returns to have been
elected; provided, that in municipal corporations having more than
one election precinct the Judges of one of said precincts will be de-
signated to receive the canvass of all the others, and make returns
thereof to the Secretary of the Territory, who is hereby authorized
to issue certificates of election to the persons who, being eligible,
appear by said returns to be elected as heretofore provided.
It is further ordered that the order of October 19, 1882, relating
to municipal elections, be and the same is hereby rescinded.

THE TERRITORY OF UTAH. I09
A LETTER
Salt Lake City, Utah, August 24th, 1883.
Hex. H. M. Teller, Secretary of the Interior^ Washington^ D. C:
Sir — I have the honor to inform you that the Report upon the
Registration of voters in June last, the election for Members of the
Legislative Assembly, and other officers, held on the 6th day of the
present month, in this Territory, and the full proceedings of this
Commission in connection therewith, will, from necessity, be de-
layed for a time. However, we think it will be proper to sav now,
in advance of our regular report, that the law known as the" "Ed-
munds Act," so far as we have been responsible for its execution,
has been carefully, but rigidly enforced this year, as it was last.
No person living in polygamy has been permitted to vote at any
election, or to be voted for, for any office; and while only three
convictions in prosecutions against polygamists under the Act of
1862, have been secured, nearly or quite fifteen thousand persons
have been disfranchised on account of polygamic practices, through
the operations of the law as administered by this Commission.
Ten suits for damages have been instituted against the Com-
mission, by certain Mormons whose names were rejected at the first
registration, and who were not permitted to vote at the election in
November, 1882, because they refused to comply with the Rules
and Regulations, prescribed under the law by the Commission, for
the proof of the eligibility of all voters. It is understood that these
suits have been brought for the purpose, primarily, of testing the
constitutionality of this law, and secondarily, to determine the legal-
ity of our acts thereunder.
The first hearing in these cases will be had early in October,
It is deemed advisable to withhold our regular report until the
court here shall have heard and passed upon these cases.
Moreover, certain phases of the general situation here have pre-
sented themselves through the recent election, and in other ways,
in the present year, which will require to be carefully considered
before the Commission will be prepared to make the full and com-
prehensive report which the President and Congress will undoubt-
edly desire, and the Commission will wish to make. Such a report
will be prepared and forwarded, in ample time for the use of the
President in communicating with Congress at the commencement
of its session, in December next.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
ALEXANDER RAMSEY.
By order of the Commission.

ANNUAL REPORT.
Washington, D. C, October 30, 1883.
SiE : The Board of five Commissioners appointed by the Presi-
dent under the provisions of the act of March 22, 1882, entitled "An
act to amend section 5352 of the Revised Statutes of the United
States in reference to bigamy, and for other purposes," respectfully
submit the following report:
Before proceeding with the account of the transactions of the
Board since our last report to the Interior Department, we deem it
advisable to make a brief statement of the former legislation of
Congress in relation to bigamy or polygamy. There is no doubt
that "plural marriage" was practiced to a considerable extent
among the Mormons from the time of their first immigration to the
Great Salt Lake Valley in 1847. It was in 1852 that it was first
publicly proclaimed as a tenet of the church by alleged "divine
revelation" by Brlgham Young, president of the church, and gov-
ernor of Utab Territory under the appointment of President Fill-
more.
After the lapse of ten years, namely, on July 1, 1862, an act
was passed by Congress which provides that "every person having a
husband or wife living, who marries another, whether married or
single, in a Territory or other place over which the United States
have exclusive jurisdiction, is guilty of bigamy, and shall be pun-
ished by a fine of not more than $500, and by imprisonment for a
term not more than five years."
Under this law there have been very few convietions, not more
than three, as we are advised, for a period of over twenty years,
which is due largely to the fact that a great majority of the com-
munity are in sympathy with the accused. In this connection we
deem it proper to say that no reflection is intended to be cast upon
the judges or other officers of justice in Utah appointed by the
Government. Doubtless they have done the best they could with
such means and legal measures as were furnished by the Govern-
ment.
THE TERHITORY OF UTAH.
The law of March 22, 1882, is much more comprehensive. In ad-
dition to repeating the same penalty for entering into the polygamic
relation, it amends the former law by providing a penalty "against
any man who simultaneously, or on the same day, marries more
than one woman," such cases having occurred in Utah, and the for-
mer law not providing for such "simultaneous" nuptials. Also, the
present law provides a penalty for "unlawful cohabitation," which
was intended to meet the case of a continuance of the polygamic
relation, for it was held by the courts, under the former law, that a
man living in a polygamic relation could not be convicted after
the three years' statute of limitations had expired from the time of
entering into the plural marriage. Besides, new sections are intro-
duced into the present act relating to the qualification of jurors,
amnesty to offenders, and the legitimation of children born before
January 1, 1883.
With the execution of those provisions of the act thus far ad-
verted to, this Commission have nothing to do; and there is a general
misapprehension in the public mind as to the extent of our authority,
which, though important and difficult of execution, is much more
circumscribed and limited than many suppose. Our whole author-
ity is set forth in the ninth or last section of the law, which is to be
construed in connection with the preceding section, and per-
haps some other sections of the act.
The eighth section provides that —
No polygamist, bigamist, or any person cohabiting with more than one woman,
and no woman cohabiting with any of the persons described as aforesaid in this sec-
tion, in any Territory or other place over which the United States have exchisive
jurisdiction, shall be entitled to vote at any election held in any such Territory or
other piacCj or be eligible for election or appointment to. or be entitled to hold any
office or place of public trust, honor, or emolument in, under, or for any such Terri-
tory or place, or under the United States. •
The ninth and last section is as follows:
Sec. 9. That all the registration and election offices of every description in the
Territory of Utah are hereby declared vacant, and each and every duty relating to
the registration of voters, the conduct of elections, the receiving or rejection of votes,
and the canvassing and returning of the same, and the issuing of certificates or other
evidence of election, in said Territory, shall, until other provisions be made by the
legislative assembly of said Territory, as is hereinafter by this section provided, be
performed, under the existing laws of the United States and said Territory, by
proper persons, who shall be appointed to execute such offices and perform such
duties by a Board of five persons, to be appointed by the President, by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate, not more than three of whom shall be members of
112 THE TERRITORY OF UTAH.
one political party, and a majority of whom shall be a quorum. The members of
said Board so appointed by the President shall each receive a salary at the rate of
three thousand dollars per annum, and shall continue in office until the legislative
assembly of said Territory shall make provision for filling said offices as herein
authorized. The Secretary of the Territory shall be the Secretary of said Board, and
keep a journal of its proceedings, and attest the action of said Board under this sec-
tion. The canvass and return of all the votes at elections in said Territory for
members of the legislative assembly thereof shall also be returned to said Board,
which shall canvass all such returns and issue certificates of election for those persons
who, being eligible for such election, shall appear to have been lawfully elected,
which certificates shall be the only evidence of the right of such persons to sit in such
assembly: Provided, That said Board ol five persons shall not exclude any person
otherwise eligible to vote, from the polls on account of any opinion such person may
entertain on the subject of bigamy or polygamy, nor shall they refuse to count any
such vote on account of the opinion of the person casting it, on the subject of bigamy
or polygamy, but each house of such assembly, after its organization, shall have
power to decide upon the election and qualifications of its members. And at or
after the first meeting of said legislative assembly, whose members shall have been
elected and returned according to the provisions of this act, said legislative assembly
may make such laws, comformable to the organic act of said Territory, and not in-
consistent with other laws of the United States, as it shall deem proper concerning
the filling of the offices in said Territory declared vacant by this act.
It will thus be seen that the duties of this Comiriission appertain
only to matters of registration and election and eligibility to office,
while the punishment of the crime of polygamy is left, as under the
former law, to the courts of justice.
Nor are we invested wath legislative authority. Our powers are
of a quasi- judicial and administrative character. But from the gen-
eral terms of many parts of the act, we have been obliged to exercise
a considerable latitude of discretion to make the act effectual, con-
fining ourselves within the limits of the law, according to our best
judgment.
We have heretofore communicated to the Department of the In-
terior the difficulties we encountered on entering upon our duties last
year; also the measures we adopted for excluding polygamists from
registration and from the polls, and that we had excluded some
twelve thousand men and women from registration and voting by
reason of their disqualification under this act. Pursuing the same
policy, we have had equal success ^t the general election held on
the 6th of August, 1883, in excluding polygamists from the polls.
The theory of the act of March 22, 1882, appears to be this: that
a discrimination between those Mormons who practice polygamy
and those who do not, placing a stigma upon the former and depriv-
THE TERRITORY OF UTAH. II3
ing them of the right of suffrage as well as the right to hold office,
while, on the other hand, an inducement is held out to. the latter
class, that by abstaining from the polygamic relation they 'will enjoy
all the political rights of American citizens, would in time have the
effect of inducing great numbers of the Mormon people to refrain
from plural marriage.
While such considerations are not likely to have much effect upon
the elderly men who already have a plurality of wives and several
families of children, they must have great weight with the young-
men of the Territory, many of whom are ambitious and aspiring,
and would not like voluntarily to embrace political ostracism.
The leading Mormons, who are generally in polygamy, evi-
dently perceive this tendency; and, therefore, ever since the pas-
sage of this act, they have assiduously taught their people that this
measure is transient, and that it will soon be set aside by the Federal
courts or by the action or non-action of Congress.
So far as we are advised, very few, if any, jllegal votes have
been cast in Utah since the Commission took charge of registrations
and elections in August, 1882.
As to the declared objects of the act of Congress as therein set
forth, so far as appertains to our duties, it is not denied that the
operation of the act has been eminently successful; that is to say,
the polygamists have all been excluded from the polls and from
eligibility to office. Considering that during the twenty years since
the anti-polygamy act of 1862 was passed, the penalties of that law
have been enforced against not exceeding three persons, it would
seem that in the enforcement of the present law against some
twelve thousand polygamists who have been excluded from the
polls, it must justly be regarded that the act has been fully and suc-
cessfully executed.
Before passing from this topic, we deem it proper to observe that
no person well informed in regard to Utah affairs, could reasonably
have expected, at the passage of the act, that there would be an im-
mediate change in the political situation, nor that it would have an
immediate effect in destroying the practice of polygamy; but the
act must necessarily have a strong influence in that direction. The
very existence of the law disfranchising the polygamists must tend
to destroy their influence, whenever it is understood that this is to
be a permanent discrimination. Those Mormons who have the
1 14 TI^ TERRITORY OF UTAH. 7
ballot will after a time be conscious of a power which they will be
unwilling to use forever at the bidding of those who have it not.
The fact, also, that it will be necessary to the preservation of the
political influence of the "People's party" (as the Mormons style
themselves) to have a^a^ge body of their members who are not
polygamists, must tend in time to weaken the practice of polygamy,
for every married Mormon who takes but one plural wife loses three
votes for his party — his own and those of his two wives (woman suf-
frage being established by law in Utah). iVnother consideration,
already adverted to, the influence upon the young men and the
rising generation, is entitled to great weiglit. Seeing all the offices
of honor, trust, and profit, such as Delegate to Congress, members
of the legislative assembly, probate judges, clerks of the county
courts, sheriff's, and others, many of them quite lucrative, held by
monogamists, w^hil^ polygamists are wholly excluded, the aspiring-
young men of the Territory would present an anomaly in human
nature if they should fail to be strongly influenced against going
into a relation which thus subjects them to political ostracism and
fixes on them the stigma of moral turpitude.
The difficulty of the situation can be l)etter understood from the
fact that among the orthodox Mormons of Utah polygamy is a part
of their religious faith, and while but a small per cent, of the whole
adult Mormon population have actually entered into the polygamic
relation, yet all the faithful believe in it as a divine revelation. The
Mormons believe in the Old Testament, the New Testament, and a
great deal besides, namely, the Book of Mormon, and divers so-
called revelations claimed to have been received by the prophet
Joseph Smith and his successors, Brigham Young and John Taylor^
which are mostly printed in their Book of Doctrine and Covenants.
Among these so-called revelations is one in favor of a plurality of
wives.
That a doctrine and practice so odious throughout Christendom
vshould have been upheld so many years against the laws of Congress
and the sentiments of the civilized world, is one of the marvels of
the nineteenth century, and can be scarcely am>reciated even by
those who are familiar with the w^orld's histor}*- in relation to the
difficulties of governmental control or suppression of religious fa
naticism.
Certainly, no government can permit a violation of its laws under
the guise of religious freedom; and while Congress may not legis-
THE TERRITORY OF UTAH. US'
jate as to mere matters of opinion^ yet it may denounce and punish
as crimes those actions which are in violation of social duties or
subversive of good, order. It was upon this principle that the
Supreme Court of the United States held the anti-polygamy law of
1802 to be valid and constitutional. (Reynolds vs. The United
States, 8 Otto.) .,^^S;i,
The right of Congress to suppress this great evil is undoubted.
It is equally plain that the dignity and the good name of this great
Government among the nations of the earth demand such Con-
gressional action as shall effectually eliminate this nati(»nal disgrace
In our report of November 17, 1882, we made several recommen- ^
dations, which were substantially incorporated into Senate bill No.
3238 of the last session of Congress, reported by the Judiciary Com-
mittee, December 13, 1882. This bill, however, contains some other
provisions besides those mentioned, and we hope that the proposed
measure as a whole will receive the favorable consideration of
Congress at its next session. The recommendations above referred
to — re-submitted as a part of this report — are as follows:
In our judgment, a marriage law enacted by Congress would be an efficient aux-
iliary in the suppression of polygamy. Ut is asserted and generally believed by non-
Mormons in this Territory that plural marriage is still practiced here in secret. We
would recommend that Congress enact a law declaring all future marriages in this
Territory null and void unless they are contracted and evidenced in the manner pro-
vided by the act. For example: that all marriages shall be solemnized in certain
designated public places, artd witnessed by such persons and registered in such
public offices as to make the proof of marriage morally certain; providing, also, that
the person officiating in the marriage ceremony, together with the parties and wit-
nesses, shall make their affidavits against polygamy, and set forth the time and place
and other particulars relating to the marriage, or allow marriages to be
solemnized in private, but with the like guarantees of registration, affidavits, wit-
nesses, etc., and in either case providing penalties for violation of the act by any of
-the persons concerned therein. In making this suggestion we omit the details,
which can readily be supplied by reference to the marriage acts of most of the States.
In our former report we adverted to the law of this Territory conferring on women
the right of suffrage. This law was enacted by the Territorial legislature some
twelve years ago. Of course, it is competent for Congress to repeal or annul this
law. Without expressing any opinion on the question of women suffrage in general,
we are satisfied that, owing to the peculiar state of affairs in Utah, this law is an ob-
struction to the speedy solution of the vexed question.
In the prosecution of polygamy cases here it is difficult to prove the first or legal
marriage. We would suggest as a remedy that the first or legal wife be declared by
act of Congress a competent witness in sUch prosecutions.
Il6 THE TERRITORY OF UTAH.
Under the act of Congress by virtue of whose provisions this Commission was ap-
pointed, the people of Utah appear to be put upon probation until a legislative as-
sembly elected under the provisions of the act shall meet and pass the requisite laws
concerning registration and election.
If, however, the next session of the legislative assembly, elected under the act of
Congress, shall fail to respond to the will of the nation, Congress should have no
hesitation in using extraordinary measures to compel the people of this Territory to
obey the laws of the land.
The present legislature, chosen at the August election, is com-
posed wholly of Mormons, none of whom, however, live in polygamy.
This legislature will convene in January next. It will be their duty,
under the act of 1882, to adopt measures, in conformity with the
provisions of that law, for the suppression of polygamy. Whether
the legislature will take such action, may not properly be discussed
by us in advance of Xhit opportunity given them by the law to do so.
If they shall fail in this respect when the time shall come for them
to act, this Commission will be prepared to recommend, and Con-
gress certainly will not delay the adoption of, the most stringent
measures compatible with the limitations of the Constitution that
may be considered necessary for the suppression of this great evil.
In view of the fact that this contingency might come, we have al-
ready given the subject of such further legislation much study and
reflection, and will be ready at the proper time, if the case requires,
to promptly present our views for the consideration of the President
and Congress.
In the interim between the November election for Delegate to
Congress and the general election in August, 1883, municipal elec-
tions were held in a number of cities and towns^ under rules and
orders of this Board.
But the most important election was that of August 6, 1883, a
general election for members of the legislative assembly, probate
judges, clerks of the county courts, assessors and collectors, county
recorders, sheriffs, county treasurers, county superintendents of dis-
trict schools, and other county officers, and many precinct officers,
numbering in all nine hundred and sixty that were elected, all of
whom, as well as all the voters, are monogamists.
In June, prior to the election, the Commission caused a revision
of the registration to be made in all the prrecincts of the Territory,
excluding all polygamists from the lists, an abstract of which,
marked "A," page 65, is hereto appended.
THE TERRITORY OF UTAH. II7
The election was conducted, in general, in a quiet and orderly
manner. The total number of votes cast was 31,961, against 27,923
at the last November election. The principal falling off in the vote
was on the part of Gentiles, or Liberal party. In November the
total vote of the People's (or Mormon) party was 23,039; Liberal,
4,884. In August, 1883, the total vote of the People's party was
30,508; Liberal, 1,453; from which it appears that large numbers of
the Liberals refrained from voting, a fact much to be regretted,
for the reason that it is believed that by proper effort and "good
management," one or more non-Mormons might have been elected
to the legislative assembly, who would have the opportunity of put-
ting the majority on record.
In pursuance of the ninth section of the act of Congress, the
Commission appointed a board of five canvassers to canvass the re-
turns of the election, except those for members of the legislative
assembly, which under the act are to be canvassed by this Commis-
sion.
After public notice in the newspapers, the said, board of canvas-
^sers assembled, with the members of this Commission, at Salt Lake
City, and the election returns were canvassed, the result ascertain-
ed, and certificates of election were awarded.
Recently some ten suits were instituted in the Third District
Court of Utah, by Mormons, against the members of this Commission,
complaining that they had been unjustly deprived of the right to
register and vote. These are understood to be test cases, designed
to contest the constitutionality of the Edmunds act, as well as the
legal construction which we put upon its provisions. These suits
are still undecided, and are likely to be appealed to the Supreme
Court of the United States.
It has been asserted that polygamic marriages have increased
since the passage of the Edmunds act; on the contrary, we have the
opinion of many Mormons and non- Mormons that they have com-
paratively decreased since the passage of said act. After diligent
inquiry, we believe the latter conclusion is correct. But the Utah
legislature will have the opportunity of satisfying the country on
this particular subject by passing such a public marriage act as that
which we have suggested to Congress.
By this and such other legislation as we have indicated, they will
give the Government assurance of their loyalty and patriotism, and
avert a contest that cannot but result in their discomfiture.
Il8 THE TERRITORY OF UTAH.
In concluding this report v/e consider it proper to commend the
zeal of the Governor of Utah in his eiforts to enforce the law.
